My name is Morgan Karas I am a graduate student at URI. I am currently working on my masters degree in Secondary education biology and general science with a middle school endorsement. I currently hold a bacholers degree in Wildlife Conservation Biology which I also received from URI. I am originally from Lincoln RI but I currently reside in Johnston along with my 2 children and my German Shepard. I love the outdoors so I love hiking, swimming, bird watching, playing with my kids and pretty much anything that has to do with being outside. I also love to read, play scrabble, and watch Grey's Anatomy and Vampire Diaries. I am very excited to begin my student teaching and to start my career as an educator.
